Chapter 24 - The Young Dragon

3 weeks later…

Hey buddy, you're finally awake.

What's your name?

"Mortyn. My name is Mortyn."

Nice to meet you, Mortyn. Do you know where your parents are?

"No, I don't even remember if I have parents."

Well, let's travel around and see if we can find them.

2 years later…

We never found his parents, so I asked if he wanted to come live with me.

"I'm fine with that."

Okay, let's go home.

4 years later…

It's been four years, and Mortyn has already grown up so much.

He's able to hunt on his own and even fly now.

I know I should work on getting more skills soon, but for now, I just want to enjoy life.

10 years later…

What on earth—Mortyn, stay here.

"Okay, Father."

I ran forward.

Are you okay?

"Huh? Who are you?"

I'm Omnyth. You're losing your vitality—I need to heal you now.

2 minutes later…

Okay, her life is no longer in danger.

What's your name?

"Liora. My name is Liora."

Rest here, Liora.

"Where? There's nowhere to rest—"

Sure there is.

World, make a mountain right here.

Rrrmmmmbbllhhh… krrrshhhh—THOOOOM!

"What the hell!?"

"The ground just produced rock, dirt, and sand… then the gravity increased eighty times in that one area to create a mountain. Is he a god?"

No, no, no—I'm not a god. I just have power.

Hey, would you like to come home with us?

Or do you know where your parents or home is?

"I'd like to go with you. I don't have a home."

Well, welcome to the family.

Let's go home.
